This inspired me to chant Shri Navakara Mahamantra at all times, under all circumstances and under all odds.
(3) One more incident of 1-4-1973. At that time, I and my elder brother Mansukhlal Dalichand Vasa were serving in Jibuti (Red Sea) near Aden in one company. We were in our workshop on one Sunday. It was 10.10 a.m. Suddenly there was an earthquake. Our structure began to move to and fro. Persons ran on the public road. I started chanting the Navakara Mahamantra. In some 15 seconds, the earthquake got silenced.
On the same day, once more at 10.30 a.m. there was another earthquake while we were on the third floor. At that moment also I chanted Shri Navakara Mahamantra, and, as a result, I suffered no injury.
At 9.15 a.m. again there was an earthquake. Lights went off. It was all dark. Again the Navakara Mantra shielded us.
(4) On 11-5-1986, at 9.30 p.m. I was struck by a bus near Trikon Bag at Rajkot. I was just saved, again due to the shelter of Shri Navakara.
Thus, now onwards, only with a desire for salvation the Japa of Navakara Mahamantra now continues as a matter of course.
May all Jivas take recourse to the Navakara Mahamantra and get quickly free from all sorrows and sins.
